And this sh1t backs it up

Post a few that you sucked out on. It will help ease the pain.

Just an FYI, you'll see plenty of shenanigans at higher levels, also. Don't be disappointed when someone busts you out of a $50 tourney with crap when you call their 3 bet bluff with AA and they have 56 sooted...

There has been none today it seems, atleast not on a pot bigger than 3-4BBs, lol...

Uh yeh shove preflop in the last 2 hands.

QFT

This reminded me of a tournament I played the other day where I got my aces cracked at the final table. I was a little tilted, but I remembered how lucky I had gotten earlier to even be at the final table. Just remember you have to take the good with the bad, and these beats happen at ALL LEVELS. Here are the hands I'm talking about, first one I'm short and got lucky as hell to survive and then the beat I took at the final table. Hope this helps ease the frustration a little.
